White: Verifiers in the loop provide higher signal than hypothesis rankings
“I have a lot more faith in these, like verifier-in-the-loop kind of scenarios where you have either data analysis, literature search, or you're running a unit test, or whatever, you're going and running the experiment. Anything like that, I think, is going to …”

White: Cosmos's 50% benchmark score stems from subjective result interpretation
“That number that was 50% that came from cosmos's interpretation of some of the analysis. So like it might go in literature and find this result. And then it would say, wow, this is super exciting. This is amazing. Or it might do data analysis, but this is a no…”

White: AI hits 60-70% on Bixbench, matching human expert agreement
“We're getting to 60%, 70% correctness on Bixbench, and we found that actually we're at the point where humans disagree at this level. Like, humans only agree 70% of the analysis, and so it's true that, like, when it comes to analyzing data, like, humans do not…”

“I think whether GPT, 5.2 codex max or Opus 4.5 is going to do better. It's probably doesn't matter. It's just a matter of like, which one's going to have all the information about what's in the lab and how much will it cost? How long will it take?”

White: Simulating biological systems hits fundamental limits; empirical lab measurement is unavoidable
“Basically the best model whatever, Opus seven or GPT 10, like it really can only propose the first experiment, maybe slightly more clever, but at a certain point you just need information, right? Like some little calculations you can do that, like, there's mor…”

White: OpenAI reached out to red team new models after reading his chemistry paper
“And then opening eye, some people there Lama was there. She saw this paper, and they reached out, like, hey, we're building this new model, and we think it'd be great to red team it to see, like, what could happen with these models if they're applied to chemis…”

White: New AI laboratory risk scenarios have become realistic
“To some extent, there was like a first wave that we thought this could unlock a lot of stuff and I don't think it came to pass. I think there's now an emerging sort of second wave of like, there are some actually new scenarios that were just too farfetched to …”

White: Synthesis routes for dangerous compounds are already available on Wikipedia
“You can go find the synthesis route for many dangerous compounds on Wikipedia. People know what are the targets in the human body that, like, are targeted by most biological weapons. It's not really that much of a mystery.”
